In this episode, we’re joined with Richard Watson from Scottish Families who shares his recovery journey for recovery month.
Recovery Month is a national observance held every September to promote and support new evidence-based treatment and recovery practices, the emergence of a strong and proud recovery community, and the dedication of service providers and community members across the nation who make recovery in all its forms possible.
'And it’s been a really great journey, do you know. And I’m still passionate about recovery, I still get involved wherever I can.'
